Huh
@myphone I've often wondered why you have only 47 posts when you joined Head-Fi since 2001. You must be a man of few words.
Mind you I have enjoyed your 'few' posts since you came here, so kudos to you. Pardon my tongue in cheek comment but you're a good addition to our fold. Otherwise it would only be Pct, Cf, apsi, H1 or Lobster or Oskari when he does wakes up, who will answer me.
Well, I'm not unnecessarily different from you. I'm always a computer person. I've worked in IT all my life, since I left the army national service, where I witness a chubby guy who couldn't march. His left hand and left leg would come out together, likewise his right hand and right leg would extend together. To this day, I still cannot understand why he has such a gift but not according to the drill sergeant. His face red with rage, he would yelled, 'Didn't your mum teach you how to walk??? !!!!!! '
Ok where was I? Ah, I am a PC and Mac guy. I would compromise and use these as source. Of course if someone would to donate a Micro Seiki turntable to me, I'd gladly give up my PC life. Life as a PC... 'Hello World', 'Where do you want to go today?' Remember these Microsoft global image advertising slogans?
Times have changed. In the old days, after work, the way to relax after meal is to put on a carefully selected LP, drop the stylus, walk back to the armchair with a glass of red and just enjoy.
These days, after meal, it's grab a Heineken or Vodka or whatever poison you can grab, sit on your executive leather swivel chair, pick a pair of tubes, plonk then in your tube amp sockets and flick the switch. Open up Tidal browsers, zoom in on the song you want to hear. 10 secs later, on cue, select a different song before even Elvis can do his pelvis thrust. Such convenience now and with a system that is much quieter and more revealing than your vinyl playback. But it is not as organic. the '1's and '0's are fed on synthetic food. Vinyl is fed on farm fresh, corn fed pure grain.
Anyhoo, take your pick. Vinyl is making a come back and digital is saying 'get lost'. Everyone wants a market share, including the live singers.
Enjoy
I'm listening to Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie. Dropped in my Bendix 6080 this morning to see if you know what you're talking about with respect to 6080s. I'll let you know if I decide
